| Lonely Planet book is an essential!! |
So we've booked our flights! Who knew it would be cheaper to fly from Dublin to Beijing rather than going Muscat to Beijing! Flying Dublin to Beijing June 23 with Lufthansa. What do you think is the thing I do immediately after booking my flights? Get my Lonely Planet Guide for Beijing!
I got my Lonely Planet book the other day for 6 Riyal (around 12 euro). Nothing makes me more excited than going to the book shop and picking up the Lonely Planet edition for that particular country or city. When we went to Thailand, I had the girls driven crazy with 'What does Lonely Planet say?' and 'I'll just check my Lonely Planet book'.
In case you don't know what the Lonely Planet books are, let me tell you. They are a series of travel books dedicated to informing the traveller about their chosen destination. These guides offer advice and information on everything from where to stay to where to eat, things to do to attractions. They even offer basic phrases in the language of the country. In terms of accommodation and places to eat, the books inform you of places with different budgets in mind. The books are frank and honest in the information they supply which helps travellers to make informed decisions.
They really are a travel essential worth spending a bit of money on. I know I can not wait to start reading up on Beijing!!
